A few announcements

Hey everyone!

I hope that everyone had a great time at the cast party. Peter Pan was great and the cast loved performing for you.

The High School is offering a summer camp. Here is the link http://behstheatre.weebly.com/on-stage-summer-camp.html

They announced the fall musical, Footloose. I hope you come see it this November. It's sure to be a hit.

The Brigham City Fine Arts Center is offering theatre and art camps throughout the summer. They will be taught Ashley Pyle, who directed Charlotte's Web and choreographed Annie Jr. Both were at the Fine Arts Center.

I know that many people are auditioning for various things. I want to tell you about my last two auditions and how I didn't get a callback in either, but learned from both.

I auditioned for Disneyland. In my group of 75 I was the best male dancer. Not to brag, but that is coming from complete strangers in my group. When they announced the 20 they were calling back, I was not one of them. Despite absolutely nailing it, I wasn't even called back. It was because I was too tall. I wouldn't fit any of the characters they were looking for.

I recently auditioned for Hairspray in Ogden. I forgot my words and stumbled through the whole song. I wasn't called back. Not because I wasn't talented, but I didn't have a good audition.

Sometimes you have a good audition and you get cast, some times you have a bad audition and you don't and sometimes you have a good audition and you don't get cast. But never stop trying. There are always opportunities to be in shows. The more you audition the better you get at it, but sometimes you just bomb an audition. And that's okay. That doesn't mean you aren't talented, that doesn't mean you are bad person. You just didn't have a good audition. That's what it means and nothing else.

Best of luck with all your future auditions.

By the way there will be a musical next year. It will be announced at a future date. Jena Barber will be taking over the ACYI Musicals program.
